30 Comments

 
Yesterday we talked about phobias and the meaning of the word, acrophobia. If you missed it, you can find it right here. As promised, I wanted to present a few other words illustrating other phobias. Some are strange and some might be common. But these are pretty interesting!
Ablutophobia - fear of bathing
Autophobia - fear of being alone or of one’s self
Cacophobia - fear of ugliness
Cynophobia - fear of dogs
Heliophobia - fear of sunlight)
Lalophobia - fear of speaking
Leaukophobia - fear of the color white
Monophobia - abnormal fear of being alone
Odontophobia - fear of teeth
Paedophobia - fear of children
Philophobia - fear of love
Sophophobia - fear of learning
Siderophobia  - fear of stars
Triskaidekaphobia  - fear of the number 13
Artist Mickey Bach also has a lot of wonderful and funny drawings showing some different phobias. Take a look at them below. His collection of Word a Day was popular in the 1940s. You can see a collection of them on this website.
Acrophobia
Xenophobia

Ochlophobia
